I don't know if this hasn't been mentioned yet but Shuckle doesn't deserve being ranked as of now since it lacks Stealth Rock(Move Tutor), which is its main(or common) reason for it to be in a Sticky Web team. Power Split is a big fat gimmick that is useless to run when you're investing in bulk and not in your pea-sized offensive stats + lack the speed to retaliate quicker. No one's going to amend your moveset just to fit in two attacking moves when all it ever does it be extremely passive and spam encore/toxic/infestation. It's not taboo to discuss gimmicks but don't ever think of raising a supporting argument for a Pokemon to rank up higher just because of a gimmicky set that it can run, but it shouldn't run. There's a difference between the fineline of 'what's good' and 'what's bad'.
